Moana - Reo Māori

The reo version of Disney's popular animated film Moana was screened to cinema audiences throughout the country during Te Wiki o te reo Māori in September this year.

The adaptation of the hugely successful original movie, which was released late last year, was undertaken with the help of Matewa Media in association with Disney. Established in 2017 by founders Taika Waititi, Tweedie Waititi, and Chelsea Winstanley, Matewa Media Trust is a non-profit organisation whose goal is to contribute to te reo Māori, the culture and indigenous stories.
